Teacher: Tallie Medel

Testimonial:

I loved my clown class with Tallie! I never took a clown class before and I am so happy that I did. I felt encouraged to be silly, to be ridiculous, and to experiment with new things.

Tallie is an amazing and nurturing teacher. They are so great at helping people come out of their shell in a natural and playful way.

I also felt Tallie was genuinely interested in me personally and my artistic growth and goals in a way many teachers don't bother to be. I also felt they realy met me where I was in terms of skill level/experience with performing. They were always friendly and warm with everyone and did a great job at making me feel safe to play and experiment.

Tallie is incredible! She knows how to coax out your inner clown and challenges you in a loving way.

Tallie is amazing at creating a safe and welcoming environment. Tallie makes everyone feel better about life.
